Creating new relationship objects

A model element is a relationship, if it implements one of the following interfaces:

• com.nomagic.uml2.ext.magicdraw.classes.mdkernel.Relationship,
• com.nomagic.uml2.ext.magicdraw.activities.mdbasicactivities.ActivityEdge,
• com.nomagic.uml2.ext.magicdraw.statemachines.mdbehaviorstatemachines.Transition,
• com.nomagic.uml2.ext.magicdraw.activities.mdextrastructuredactivities.ExceptionHandler,
• com.nomagic.uml2.ext.magicdraw.compositestructures.mdinternalstructures.Connector.

For checking if the model element is a relationship, call the com.nomagic.uml2.ext.jmi.helpers.CoreHelper.isRelationship(Element) method.

For getting supplier and client elements of a relationship, use CoreHelper class getSupplierElement(Element), getClientElement(Element) methods.

Use CoreHelper class setSupplierElement(Element, Element) , setClientElement(Element, Element) methods to set supplier and client elements of a relationship.

To create a new Relationship

1. Create a new relationship model element.
2. Set client and supplier model elements by using CoreHelper class setSupplierElement(Element, Element), setClientElement(Element, Element) methods.
3. Add a new relationship into some parent by using the com.nomagic.uml2.ext.magicdraw.classes.mdkernel.Element.setOwner(Element) method.
